Signposts of Grace

I've been reading my story, I keep reliving pain
In my rear view mirror, the weight of all my shame
Now I see You were present in every battle I lost
And my sin reminds me to look to the cross

When I chose danger, You protected me
I chose evil, love surrounded me
I went down to the depths and still I found Your mercy
You want me to live in Your forgiving embrace
So when I look back at my sin, what I'll see are signposts of grace

My memory betrays me, makes me think of all I've done
But Your Word never fails me, it points me back to Your Son
I can't undo my actions, and I can't change the past
But Your love restores each wound, Your healing oil lasts

When I chose danger, You protected me
I chose evil, love surrounded me
I went down to the depths and still I found Your mercy
You want me to live in Your forgiving embrace
So when I look back at my sin, what I'll see are signposts of grace

I cried out in slavery, You broke the chains
I've tried to hide, but You call me by name
In cycles of wickedness, when I fear the damage is done
Remind me the tomb is empty and the victory is won

When I chose danger, You protected me
I chose evil, love surrounded me
I went down to the depths and still I found Your mercy
You want me to live in Your forgiving embrace
So when I look back at my sin
When I look back at my sin
If I ever look back at my sin
What I'll see are signposts of Your grace

You have led me all the way
You have led me all the way
You have led me all the way
